system calls and environment these programs expect. More information
about this project can be found at:
- F<http://www.cygwin.com/>
+L<http://www.cygwin.com/>
A recent net or commercial release of Cygwin is required.

+At the time this document was last updated, Cygwin 1.7.16 was current.
=head2 Cygwin Configuration
Perl usage.
B<NOTE:> The binaries that are built will run on all Win32 versions.
-They do not depend on your host system (Win9x/WinME, WinNT/Win2K)
-or your Cygwin configuration (I<ntea>, I<ntsec>, binary/text mounts).
-The only dependencies come from hard-coded pathnames like C</usr/local>.
+They do not depend on your host system (WinXP/Win2K/Win7) or your
+Cygwin configuration (binary/text mounts, cvgserver).
+The only dependencies come from hard-coded pathnames like F</usr/local>.
However, your host system and Cygwin configuration will affect Perl's
runtime behavior (see L</"TEST">).
=item * C<PATH>
Set the C<PATH> environment variable so that Configure finds the Cygwin
-versions of programs. Any Windows directories should be removed or
+versions of programs. Any not-needed Windows directories should be removed or
moved to the end of your C<PATH>.
=item * I<nroff>
If you do not have I<nroff> (which is part of the I<groff> package),
Configure will B<not> prompt you to install I<man> pages.
-=item * Permissions
-
-On WinNT with either the I<ntea> or I<ntsec> C<CYGWIN> settings, directory
-and file permissions may not be set correctly. Since the build process
-creates directories and files, to be safe you may want to run a
-C<chmod -R +w *> on the entire Perl source tree.
-
-Also, it is a well known WinNT "feature" that files created by a login
-that is a member of the I<Administrators> group will be owned by the
-I<Administrators> group. Depending on your umask, you may find that you
-can not write to files that you just created (because you are no longer
-the owner). When using the I<ntsec> C<CYGWIN> setting, this is not an
-issue because it "corrects" the ownership to what you would expect on
-a UNIX system.

=head1 CONFIGURE PERL ON CYGWIN
The default options gathered by Configure with the assistance of
F<hints/cygwin.sh> will build a Perl that supports dynamic loading
-(which requires a shared F<libperl.dll>).
+(which requires a shared F<cygperl5_16.dll>).
This will run Configure and keep a record:
prompts you,
Any additional ld flags (NOT including libraries)? [none] -s
- Any special flags to pass to gcc to use dynamic linking? [none] -s
- Any special flags to pass to ld2 to create a dynamically loaded library?
+ Any special flags to pass to g++ to create a dynamically loaded library?
[none] -s
+ Any special flags to pass to gcc to use dynamic linking? [none] -s
or you can edit F<hints/cygwin.sh> and uncomment the relevant variables
near the end of the file.
Alternatively, the crypt libraries in GNU libc have been ported to Cygwin.

=head1 Specific features of the Cygwin port
=item * Pathnames
-Cygwin pathnames can be separated by forward (F</>) or backward (F<\\>)
-slashes. They may also begin with drive letters (F<C:>) or Universal
-Naming Codes (F<//UNC>). DOS device names (F<aux>, F<con>, F<prn>,
-F<com*>, F<lpt?>, F<nul>) are invalid as base filenames. However, they
-can be used in extensions (e.g., F<hello.aux>). Names may contain all
-printable characters except these:
-
- : * ? " < > |
+Cygwin pathnames are separated by forward (F</>) slashes, Universal
+Naming Codes (F<//UNC>) are also supported Since cygwin-1.7 non-POSIX
+pathnames are discouraged. Names may contain all printable
+characters.
File names are case insensitive, but case preserving. A pathname that
-contains a backslash or drive letter is a Win32 pathname (and not subject
-to the translations applied to POSIX style pathnames).
+contains a backslash or drive letter is a Win32 pathname, and not

+For conversion we have C<Cygwin::win_to_posix_path()> and
C<Cygwin::posix_to_win_path()>.
-Pathnames may not contain Unicode characters. C<Cygwin> still uses the
-ANSI API calls and no Unicode calls because of newlib deficiencies.
-There's an unofficial unicode patch for cygwin at
-F<http://www.okisoft.co.jp/esc/utf8-cygwin/>
+Since cygwin-1.7 pathnames are UTF-8 encoded.
=item * Text/Binary
+Since cygwin-1.7 textmounts are deprecated and strongly discouraged.
+
When a file is opened it is in either text or binary mode. In text mode
a file is subject to CR/LF/Ctrl-Z translations. With Cygwin, the default
mode for an C<open()> is determined by the mode of the mount that underlies
-the file. See C<Cygwin::is_binmount()>. Perl provides a C<binmode()> function
+the file. See L</Cygwin::is_binmount>(). Perl provides a C<binmode()> function
to set binary mode on files that otherwise would be treated as text.
C<sysopen()> with the C<O_TEXT> flag sets text mode on files that otherwise
would be treated as binary:
=item * PerlIO
-PerlIO overrides the default Cygwin Text/Binary behaviour. A file will
-always treated as binary, regardless which mode of the mount it lives on,
-just like it is in UNIX. So CR/LF translation needs to be requested in

on every output generated by perl.
=item * F<.exe>
(unless a F<foo> also exists). Cygwin does not require a F<.exe>
extension, but I<gcc> adds it automatically when building a program.
However, when accessing an executable as a normal file (e.g., I<cp>

-=item * cygwin vs. windows process ids
+=item * Cygwin vs. Windows process ids
Cygwin processes have their own pid, which is different from the
underlying windows pid. Most posix compliant Proc functions expect
the cygwin pid, but several Win32::Process functions expect the
winpid. E.g. C<$$> is the cygwin pid of F</usr/bin/perl>, which is not
-the winpid. Use C<Cygwin::winpid_to_pid()> and C<Cygwin::winpid_to_pid()>
+the winpid. Use C<Cygwin::pid_to_winpid()> and C<Cygwin::winpid_to_pid()>
to translate between them.
+=item * Cygwin vs. Windows errors
+
+Under Cygwin, $^E is the same as $!. When using L<Win32 API Functions|Win32>,
+use C<Win32::GetLastError()> to get the last Windows error.
+
+=item * rebase errors on fork or system
+
+Using C<fork()> or C<system()> out to another perl after loading multiple dlls
+may result on a DLL baseaddress conflict. The internal cygwin error
+looks like like the following:
+
+ 0 [main] perl 8916 child_info_fork::abort: data segment start: parent
+ (0xC1A000) != child(0xA6A000)
+
+or:
+
+ 183 [main] perl 3588 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error - unable to remap
+ C:\cygwin\bin\cygsvn_subr-1-0.dll to same address as parent(0x6FB30000) != 0x6FE60000
+ 46 [main] perl 3488 fork: child 3588 - died waiting for dll loading, errno11
+
+See L<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.fixing-fork-failures>
+It helps if not too many DLLs are loaded in memory so the available address space is larger,
+e.g. stopping the MS Internet Explorer might help.
+
+Use the perlrebase or rebase utilities to resolve the conflicting dll addresses.
+The rebase package is included in the Cygwin setup. Use F<setup.exe>
+from L<http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe> to install it.
+
+1. kill all perl processes and run C<perlrebase> or

=item * C<chown()>
On WinNT C<chown()> can change a file's user and group IDs. On Win9x C<chown()>
